ZacMonkeys Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I recently accidentally deleted my EFI partition, and am now unable to get the settings right to boot into High Sierra (usually keep a backup of my EFI partition but didn't, doh). Getting stuck at garbled graphics screen with the final line "Still waiting for root device". I've encountered this issue before during installation, but I can't for the life of me recall what I needed to do to get around it.. I know it's something simple like a boot argument that I need to change. Pls halp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZacMonkeys Posted December 26, 2018 Author Share Posted December 26, 2018 Thanks for the reply, I tried adding this kext to the /Other folder in clover, still the same error =( Is there anything else I need to do to add this kext to clover other than adding it to the /Other folder?
